About the Powwow Dance Sessions
Gourd Dancing – This dance is not a true powwow dance style but a separate type of dance before the Grand Entry. During the Gourd Dancing only the Gourd Dancers, their relatives, and relatives of Veterans should be in the Pow Wow arena.
Grand Entry, Intertribal & Contest Dancing – This is the entry of all the people entering the dance arena or the sacred circle. During the Grand Entry, everyone is asked to stand as the flags are brought into the circle. Following the veterans are other important guests of the Pow Wow – including tribal chiefs, Princesses, elders, and Pow Wow organizers. Next in line are the men dancers. The men are followed by the women dancers. Once everyone is in the arena, the song ends and a song to honor the flag and the veterans is sung. During Grand Entry and the Veterans honor song it is important to native culture that NO PICTURES, VIDEOS, or AUDIO recordings take place. Following the Grand Entry, intertribal and contest dancing (if the powwow includes contests) will follow. ‘Sets’ of songs (and dancing) will be separated by announcements, specials, raffles, and other powwow related ‘business’.

History of the Battle of Pleasant Hill
The Battle of Pleasant Hill was fought on April 9, 1864, during the Red River Campaign of the American Civil War, near Pleasant Hill, Louisiana, between Union forces led by Major General Nathaniel P. Banks and Confederate forces, led by Major General Richard Taylor.
The battle was essentially a continuation of the previous day’s Battle of Mansfield, fought nearby, which ended around sunset due to darkness. The night time provided a brief interlude in hostilities. On April 9, Taylor launched an ambitious assault against the newly reinforced Federals at Pleasant Hill and had the upper hand before General Thomas J. Churchill’s Arkansas division was flanked on its right and repulsed. After the battle, the Federals remained demoralized and unconfident in their commander; they retreated to Grand Ecore, and from there to Alexandria. This was the largest battle fought west of the Mississippi River.
Officially, the battle was a Union victory; as the Confederates were successfully driven from the field. However, because Banks and his army had retreated so soon afterwards, many argued over who had really won.

Battle of Charleston Civil War Reenactment & Military Timeline
Experience history from the vantage point of Reenactors and living historians throughout a timeline of military encounters. Begin with the rowdy and often illegal doings of local Pirates, then venture into the Revolutionary War period and see how Charleston and its residents were crucial in forming a country. Move on to the Civil War and the fight to control Charleston through the Battle of Bloody Bridge. As a new century dawns we see the devastating effects of the war to end all wars, WWI. Then only a few short years later see the bravery of our fighting forces during WWII. Follow on to the Korean Conflict and the devastating circumstances of the Vietnam War.
The Battle of Charleston Civil War Reenactment provides a venue for our living historians who have some amazing stories to tell. Let them show you their equipment, how they lived, their transportation and how they fought the enemy. What a terrific place to bring your children and let them see history unfold.

About the Wacipi
A powwow is considered a celebration of life. It is called Wacipi (WAH CHEE PEE) in the Lakota/Dakota language and Ni-mi-win in Anishinabe (Chippewa/Ojibwa) language. This celebration is a time when people of all ages can gather together, to sing, dance, renew old friendships, make new friends, and share the beauty of life.
Today, there are two styles of powwow celebrations: the traditional powwow and the contest powwow. The traditional powwow is a social event where tribal ties are encouraged and reinforced. Accomplishments and achievements are acknowledged in a community setting with one’s family and friends present to witness and participate in the event. These events are driven by American Indian cultures and are used to pass on traditional values of honor to the young people.
The contest powwow is a recent phenomenon that incorporates tradition into the competition of dancing and singing. Champion dancers and singers from throughout the United States and Canada travel to various powwows throughout the nation to compete for top prizes. The University of North Dakota Indian Association (UNDIA) hosts a contest powwow.

Civil War Living History
In the spring of 1862, over 100,000 soldiers of General George B. McClellan’s Union Army of the Potomac landed at Ft. Monroe and Newport News Point and began making their way towards Richmond. By early April, they had been stopped by General John B. Magruder’s Confederate Army of the Peninsula, while reinforcements from General Joseph Johnston’s army began arriving from northern Virginia. Both sides settled into a siege along the Warwick River and around Yorktown.
Come see this historic siege recreated at locations impacted by armies from both sides. This event will take place on Saturday 10-5 pm and Sunday 11-3 pm.
Endview Plantation:
Throughout the Civil War, refugees fled as armies moved through the countryside. These families didn’t know when or if they would be able to return home and if they did, what they would find. Local families such as the Curtis family of Endview and the Lee family of Lee Hall fled west and wouldn’t return until the war was over three years later. At Endview see living historians portraying civilians fleeing the armies as they move up the Peninsula. Endview Plantation is located at 362 Yorktown Rd. Newport News, VA 23603. For questions, call (757) 887-1862.
Lee Hall Mansion:
Serving as the Confederate Headquarters of Gen. John B. Magruder’s Confederate Army of the Peninsula, Lee Hall would’ve been the epicenter of the Confederate resistance to McClellan’s Union army with staff officers busy keeping the army running. As Gen. Joseph Johnston’s army began to arrive from northern Virginia to reinforce Magruder’s troops, many regiments passed by Lee Hall or camped on its property before moving on to their places in the Confederate fortifications. One such unit was the 3rd South Carolina Infantry. See living historians portraying Magruder’s staff and the 3rd SC Infantry. Lee Hall Mansion is located at 163 Yorktown Rd. Newport News, VA 23603. For questions, call (757) 888-3371.
Newport News Park:
As soldiers from both sides settled into a siege, the 15th North Carolina Infantry was sent to Dam #1 (one of 5 dams used to make the Warwick River impassable) to build more fortifications and protect the dam from a possible crossing. On April 16th, the 3rd Vermont Infantry tried to cross the river before being forced back by overwhelming Confederate reinforcements. See living historians portraying members of the 15th NC and 3rd VT infantry at the original site near the Discovery Center. Newport News Park is located at 13560 Jefferson Ave. Newport News, VA 23603. Follow Constitution Way to the Discovery Center. For questions, call (757) 886-7777.

About the San Diego State University Pow Wow
The SDSU Pow Wow includes dance contests, cultural displays, arts and craft booths, food vendors, and various informational booths. There will be a Master of Ceremonies (MC) and Arena Director who help run the event. The MC works with the Arena Director to keep the pow wow program organized and running smoothly. The SDSU pow wow kicks off with Kumeyaay Bird singers followed by the Gourd Dance and Grandy Entry which signals the official start of the festivities.
Kumeyaay Bird Songs have been passed down through generations and are used in times of celebration or grief, to sing, dance, and share culture in the company of friends.
Bird Songs are used in the place of a written history and record an oral history and way of life for Kumeyaay people. Through the use of animal metaphors and allegory, the songs are used to instruct and imprint collective teachings about practical things such as food, the environment and geography, as well as history, customs, and social/moral values.
The Gourd Dance is a Kiowa Tribe ceremonial dance that honors warriors or veterans. Many of those that dance this style are veterans and the idea is to honor all warriors alive or fallen for their service. Most notable of the the gourd dance is the use of either a gourd rattle or metallic salt shaker rattle and a red and blue wool blanket draped over the shoulders.
Grand Entry is the official start of the pow wow and all dancers enter the arena. During the grand entry, the color guard brings in the Eagle Staff which is a symbol of American Indian Nations, the U.S flag, state and veterans flags are also represented. This is also a time when we introduce our honored Head Staff and other important guests.

Southwestern University Spring Powwow
As a ‘social powwow’, there are no contests at the SU Spring Powwow. The emphasis is on creating a relaxed environment that offers members of the community a chance to get to talk with different dancers and even partake in different dances during the day. This powwow is one of the few social powwows in central Texas.
At least a dozen different tribes are expected to participate in the powwow, with some people coming from as far as Canada. In addition to dancing, there will be vendors selling merchandise such as dream catchers, flutes, sand paintings and many different types of bead work. SU Native hosted its first powwow just a year after the organization was founded and members have worked very hard to host one every year since to keep their tradition alive.

Experience the pre-1840s fur trade era at the 39th Annual Sonoma Valley Muzzle Loaders Rendezvous on April 18-21, 2019 at the Marie Hill Ranch in Yorkville, California. Dressed in period garb, rendezvous participants will compete in target shooting, tomahawk throwing, fire making and other skills the mountain men of the fur trade era needed to survive in the unforgiving wilderness.

About Sonoma County in the Fur Trade
Sonoma County played a key role in the fur trade. The Russian-American Company, worried about the dwindling supply of sea otters in their hunting grounds in Alaska and the northwest, established Fort Ross on a bluff north of Bodega Bay in 1812. The colony would serve as a hub for Russian and indigenous hunters and traders until its abandonment in 1842. This marine-based commercial fur trade in California, which was dominated by British, American and Russian companies, focused on selling luxurious sea otter pelts mostly to China.

About the Sonoma Valley Muzzle Loaders
The Sonoma Valley Muzzle Loaders has been around since 1973. Until it closed in 1996, members shot at the Cotati Rod and Gun Club. After the club closed, members were forced to find a new site and headed north, Tognetti said. Club members now meet up to shoot monthly at the Marie Hill Ranch rendezvous site, which is on private property off Highway 128. The annual rendezvous is a much larger affair that runs from Thursday to Sunday and is held in April.

History of Fort Buenaventura
Located on an 84-acre river tract of land near the Weber River, the fort symbolizes a period of western history that was the transition from nomadic ways of the Indian tribes and trappers to the first permanent settlers in the Great Basin. Facilities at the fort include picnic areas, a canoeing pond, the replica fort including three cabins and restrooms.

Fort Buenaventura has been constructed on the original site of the fort built in 1845 by Miles Goodyear and his wife. It has been reconstructed according to archaeological and historical research.. There are no nails in the stockade; instead, historic wooden pegs and mortis and tenion joints hold the wall together.
Miles Goodyear Builds Fort Buenaventura
Miles Goodyear was a mountain man during the last years of the fur trade who built and occupied Fort Buenaventura in what is now Ogden, Utah.
As the fur trades declined and way stations such as Fort Bridger began to spring up on the overland trails, Goodyear decided to build an enclosed fort on the large westward bend of the Weber River, approximately two miles south of its confluence with the Ogden River and about one-quarter mile west of the present end of Ogden’s 28th Street. The stockade was constructed with cottonwood logs set upright in the ground that enclosed about one-half acre of land adjacent to the river. It was begun in 1845 and completed by the end of 1846. Four log cabins occupied the corners of the fort, and sheds, corrals, and a garden were also located within the enclosure. Additional corrals were located on the outside to accommodate cattle, horses, goats, and sheep. The garden was watered by river water carried by bucket to the beans, carrots, cabbages, radishes, and corn.
The fort was occupied by Goodyear, his family, other trappers, Indian helpers, and visitors. It is apparent that Goodyear hoped also to use the fort as a base for trapping and trading, and hoped also to profit from being of service to overland emigrants.
In July 1847, Goodyear visited with the first Mormon company traveling west on the Bear River west of Fort Bridger, and he tried to entice them to settle on the Weber River. He was successful. In November 1847, he sold the fort and everything in it but his horse, to James Brown (authorized by the Mormon High Council) for $1,950. The settlement was soon called Brownsville and later, Ogden.
